Njoy Pothos is an eye-catching plant that belongs to the family of Araceae and is a cultivar of the Marble Queen Pothos. Due to their attractive green and white leaves, they are a popular choice for many gardeners and plant enthusiasts. Njoy Pothos are versatile and easy-to-grow plants that can thrive in different conditions. In this blog post, we’ll share how to grow and care for Njoy Pothos, including pot type, soil type, water and light requirements, fertilizer, and how to propagate.
Best Pot Type
When it comes to choosing the right pot for your Njoy Pothos plant, select a pot that is one size larger than the current container of your plant. Choose a pot made of clay or ceramic that has drainage holes at the bottom to prevent waterlogging, which can cause root rot. Ensure that the pot is clean, and you can use disinfectant to sterilize it before transferring the plant.
Soil type for Pothos
Njoy Pothos prefers well-draining soil. They do well in a mixture of peat moss, perlite, and horticultural sand, or a good-quality potting mix that contains equal amounts of peat moss and perlite or vermiculite. Avoid overwatering as it can cause root rot. I have also written a blog post on the best soil for pothos and how and when to repot pothos. You can click here to read the best soil for pothos post.
Water and Light Requirements for Njoy Pothos
Njoy Pothos thrives in a bright, indirect light, but they can also tolerate low light conditions. If you don’t have the perfect window you can also supplement the light requirements with and an LED grow light. Ensure that the soil is moist, and water only when the top layer of soil feels dry to the touch. Use filtered or room-temperature water to prevent fluoride or chlorine damage.
Fertilizing your Pothos
To keep your Njoy Pothos healthy and thriving, you need to feed it with a balanced fertilizer. Use a slow-release formula, or water-soluble fertilizer once a month during the growing season. Avoid fertilizing during the dormant season or winter.
Growing Pothos in Water Only
If you are looking for a low-maintenance option, then you can always grow your Njoy Pothos in water. It’s easy to care for, as all you have to do is keep the water level from dropping below the roots and change it every few weeks. I have a pothos in my office that grows solely in water. I found a unique vase with a metal frog lid to separate the stems and love the touch of green it adds to my desk!
Propagating Njoy Pothos
Propagating Njoy Pothos is easy and rewarding once you have a healthy mature plant. You can propagate the plant through stem cuttings or division. For stem cuttings, use a clean and sharp pair of scissors, and cut a stem at least six inches long with at least two to three leaves. Place the cutting in water in a propagation station until roots grow, then transfer it into a pot with soil.
